Get Prepared for the Examination

This 40 hour course is designed to assist you in your preparation for the AWS CWI Examination that you will soon be taking. Please note that registration for this class does not qualify as registration for the AWS CWI Examination. Each individual must contact AWS for a registration packet and submit their application to AWS before the cutoff date for each examination. Application submission deadline is six weeks prior to the scheduled exam date. Failure to register and receive your confirmation to test will eliminate you from taking the examination or if your application is received after the submission deadline, you will be assessed a $250 Fast Track fee.

Our prep classes are only scheduled to coincide with the AWS/CWI examinations offered in the Houston area. The course will be held at our campus the week prior to the Saturday on which the CWI examination is offered. For a complete AWS/CWI examination dates (with locations) for 2010, click here.

Students should bring to class each day their own copy of API 1104, a basic calculator not capable of metric conversions, paper and pencils. The AWS text book, "Welding Inspection Technology" will be furnished as a part of the class.
